How could she hog the entire blanket the whole night?

She hurriedly covered Hayden with the duvets.

When her hands brushed past his hands and legs, Natalie found that they were cold.

Afterwards, Natalie did not sleep a wink.

She hugged Hayden and tried to warm him up with her body heat.

That morning, Hayden woke up particularly late.

After he got up, something about the look in his eyes was not quite right.

When they had breakfast, Hayden kept complaining about not feeling well. Natalie quickly took his body temperature and found it to be 39 degrees.

The high temperature alarmed her enough to jump out of her chair.

After sending Hayden to the hospital in a hurry, she rang up Tobias. Natalie was on the verge of sobbing when she spoke on the phone.

Tobias stopped her curtly, "Natalie, don't worry. I'll

be there right away."

Tobias finally arrived in the afternoon.

Hayden's condition was fine. It was just a cold-induced fever.

Though it was not serious, it was still a fever.

Natalie almost drowned in her own guilt.

After all, Hayden only got a fever because of her.

She stood in front of Tobias and with her head drooping low, "Mr. Whitlock, it's all my fault. I pulled off the blanket in my sleep and caused Hayden to catch a cold, it's all my fault." Natalie waited for the raging storm to commence.

She believed that Hayden was of great importance to Tobias, and she had caused him to catch a fever. Tobias must certainly be furious at her.

But to her surprise, he was not mad at all.

He said in a helpless tone, "Natalie, you're still snatching blankets at this age? You're so cute."

Natalie was stunned.

There seemed to be no trace of anger in Tobias's voice.
